My FireFox account email & password were breached by FaceBook in 2018. I've changed the password on my FireFox account. Do I need to change the password on FireFox Focus on my Android phone? If so, how?

Hi Tim

Just to clarify, do you mean your Firefox Account or Firefox Focus for Android?

If it is the latter - no, as there is no account or user credentials needed for or stored in that app.

If you mean your Firefox Account, I would recommend it. This support article will help:
